Good morning!

WHEW! Last week seemed to last forever for me; I barely Oxycised (feels like I barely BREATHED at all, LOL). What a crazy time with our beagle! She is doing so much better now.

Last night I did O! Level 1 using the Oxycise book. I rarely O! that way, but DH insisted on watching football. I do think that I was more focused than usual, though, and breathed with much more gusto!

I'm heading in now to do O! Level 3. I'm planning to do Level 1 again tonight.

Have a super Monday!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone,
I got in L1 today.
My week is looking crayzeee! Imay have to babysit a little girl for several days while her mom is in the hospital. I'm seceretly hoping something else may work out since Dan is gone all of riday through Saturday night late...

Good morning! I just finished doing my O! and eating some breakfast. (I seem to be hooked on that Special K w/strawberries right now)

Glad to hear your pup is doing better now, Tammy. I know that was a real scare!

Maybe things will work out where you don't have to keep the little one, Shelby. Would that be in addition to the little "peanut" you normally watch? How's that situation?

Hope your DH enjoys Oxycise!, Sharon! It's always more fun when you have someone to share O! with.

Susanna...did you enjoy the weekend w/o eating too much? Even if you did, I know you'll get back on track today.

I saw in my paper this morning that the Steelers won. I guess you were pretty excited about that, Lin.

Well....I'd better get busy with the vacuum. Housework always awaits....

Oh! We got 3" of rain yesterday!!! We sure needed it. Have a great week, everyone!

Good morning

Help!!! The last ten days, all of a sudden my hips are increasing!!! My other measurements are staying the same or going down and I know I've actually lost weight. Has anyone else had this happen?? I'm trying to decide if I am holding water or something? Maybe all of my fat is shifting to the hips Any ideas???

Finished L2 this morning.

Tammy, sorry that the Panthers didn't win. I watched the game and wasn't sure who to root for. We used to live in Maggie Valey, NC until last year, so there we always rooted for the Panthers. Now we live in Seattle. Shaun Alexander goes to our church. Don't personally know him, but ended up rooting for the Seahawks. Lin good luck with the Steelers on the 5th. I'll still be rooting for the Seahawks

Tammy I did want you to know that I'm glad your Beagle is better and is back home.

Shelby, Here's hoping that something else will work out so that you don't have to babysit for several days. I know you are always willing to help people, but it's especially hard when your husband isn't there!

Everyone have a great day.
Sharon

Hi and thanks for the warm welcome back!

I did do my O! on Sat. (Level 1), but due to family stresses did not get it posted.

I've done Level 3 for today - I'm planning to do each tape a few times and then rotate to the next one.

Tammy - happy to hear your doggie is doing better!

I'm thinking strongly about getting into working with an animal rescue group - they need help definitely!

Have a wonderful rest of the day - Linda

Wow! I must be re-instated as my avatar, etc. is working now! So exciting! Can you tell my life's been a bit boring lately?

Hi Ladies~

Enjoyed reading your posts. Been kind of "MIA" the last few days. Just lazy I guess. That happens right?

Was reading to get motivated to do my "O". Going to take some asprin for my headache and go do "O" no matter how I feel. Today is my weigh and measure day so I will let you know how I did when I post later today ok?

Alrighty then, off I go!
Until next time...
Susie

Me again!

Ok, just finished level 4. Haven't done that one in a long time.
I w/m and didn't do very well. Went up 3 lbs. and up 4". It's ok though. I knew this week wouldn't be good. I've been sitting alot with my knitting and eating way to much sugar, white four, and salty foods. Now that I know what I did, this week I'll need to work it.

Have a great day all~
Until next time...

Hello "O" Pals!

Walked this morning in the gym, then did L4 this afternoon. Weight was the same yesterday, but down 2 1/2 inches this morning!!! I can tell the walking is really helping just need to get back into eating "Healthy".

Ellen

Ellen congratulations on 2 1/2" that's great

Did some research on the site this afternoon. Others have also quickly gained inches, and it looks like the culpret is not drinking water!!! As soon as the people increased their water the inches came right back off. Guess what I'm going to be doing Probably, especially since I had popcorn over the weekend. At least, it wasn't buttered, but it did have salt.

Susie I'm glad you are enjoying knitting. It was great that you still did O when you had had a headache today! Hope you are feeling better.

Linda in MN I like your avitar.

Sharon
Now I'm going to drink my water

Thanks Sharon! My headache went away! I really needed that reminder about the water. Watching the football game yesterday I was throwing the salted peanuts down me. Difficult considering they were in their shell. Need that water!

Until next time...
Susie

Hello O-buddies!

Good to see several posts today! I'm not feeling well, so won't be doing O tonight. I just feel best when I hold still, so I've done quite a bit of that today.

Kelly, I didn't really do too bad over the weekend. Eating was good today, too. Getting 3 inches of rain would create flooding here! I'm happy for you!

Wow Ellen! Congratulations on the 2 1/2 inches!

I wonder why I seem to be so backwards. Lately I've noticed that when I drink cold water I get a headache! I think it works better if the water's not real cold.

It was so windy here today, and about 52 degrees.

Susanna

I am so bad at posting. Was gone a lot in Dec. and again in Jan.
Wasn't able to "O" much while I was away. I gues that is one reason I didn't post.
Went out and bought one of those little TVs with a built in VCR. So now I will take it with me wherever I go.
Since being back on track I have been doing Levels 2 and 3.
I still struggle getting the weight off, but in other ways I find that "O"ing is a must for me.
Susanna I am so sorry you are not feeling well.
Hope you will be a lot better tomorrow.
